This is slightly off topic, but with all this talk of gitk, I thought it'd be a good time to recommend QGit [1]. It's an alternative git history viewer with a friendlier interface built on top of a certain modern GUI toolkit that we all know and love. I agree that there is little sense in trying to learn git without using a graphical log viewer. It quickly and intuitively answers the question "What did I just do?", which tends to come up a lot when beginning with Git. (For the "What am I about to do?" question, I would recommend git-cola [2], which is a nice GUI for "git diff" and "git add -p", among other things.)
